-- Posted by Anonymous at 7:06 am on Dec. 29, 2008 if you know someone whos pregnant but there also anorexic? can that harm the baby? -- Posted by akSamiRae at 7:08 am on Dec. 29, 2008 Usually they cant get preg. but yeah if can def harm the baby triples the chances of a miscarage. -- Posted by roflfuckyou at 7:09 am on Dec. 29, 2008 Yes it can harm the baby greatly. It can be born with problems, or she could misscarry. -- Posted by miNx at 7:09 am on Dec. 29, 2008 Quote: from aksamirae at 11:08 pm on Dec. 29, 2008 Usually they cant get preg. but yeah if can def harm the baby triples the chances of a miscarage. this, If she really wants the baby, she should start eating healthier. -- Posted by child of rock n roll at 7:10 am on Dec. 29, 2008 That can increase the likelihood of a miscarriage for sure. Even if the baby did somehow survive, it would be EXTREAMLY unhealthy. What the mother eats is the only source of food for the baby..so barley eating for 9 months is like starving a baby for 9 months. -- Posted by Anonymous at 7:10 am on Dec. 29, 2008 Quote: from bhabytaranee 13 at 7:09 am on Dec. 29, 2008 Quote: from aksamirae at 11:08 pm on Dec. 29, 2008 Usually they cant get preg. but yeah if can def harm the baby triples the chances of a miscarage. this, If she really wants the baby, she should start eating healthier. i tried telling her but she told me that nothing would happen to her baby and the worst that can happen is it comes into the world a little underweight. -- Posted by Sheebobee at 7:11 am on Dec. 29, 2008 yes it can increase the risk of a miscarriage -- Posted by gapperdan at 7:20 am on Dec. 29, 2008 I would think it will damage her as well, seeing as what little food she does eat is being shared? If I were you, I'd somehow get her to look at some of those leaflets/websites that are deliberately made to scare people into eating... Either that or anonymously arrange for someone to visit her just to let her know there are people who can help. -- Posted by W o n d e r l a n d at 11:16 pm on Dec. 29, 2008 They can both be severly damaged -- Posted by ChemicEmotions at 11:42 pm on Dec. 29, 2008 Quote: from Anonymous at 9:10 am on Dec. 29, 2008 Quote: from bhabytaranee 13 at 7:09 am on Dec. 29, 2008 Quote: from aksamirae at 11:08 pm on Dec. 29, 2008 Usually they cant get preg. but yeah if can def harm the baby triples the chances of a miscarage.    this, If she really wants the baby, she should start eating healthier. i tried telling her but she told me that nothing would happen to her baby and the worst that can happen is it comes into the world a little underweight. Dont really understand how she could get pregnant if she's anorexic anyway tbh. Are you sure she isn't just trying to get attention? But yet, she'll get a miscarriage eventually. Which I wouldn't really call it a shame.. if there's pregnant women out there who don't treat their body's right while being pregnant, the potential baby is best left unborn.
